[rt-users] Moving RT off of the root URL

[Frank Saxton]

Hello Kristian

Thanks very much for responding.  I built RT 
following the instructions to the letter.  It's a 
fastcgi setup and I don't know that the changes 
you suggested will work the way RT is 
configured.  I'm happy to go ahead and try if you 
say it will work though..  below is my current 
httpd.conf which works perfectly except that RT 
runs on the root URL and not http://localhost/rt

Thanks very much in advance!

# RT Stuff

Alias /rt/ "/opt/rt3/share/html/"
